Recently a friend mentioned a “boundaries allow kindness” approach, which she’d read somewhere, empowered her to manage the continual demands of her difficult mother. Only a couple days later I read about it in Brené Brown’s The Gifts of Imperfection. She wrote, “One of the greatest (and least discussed) barriers to compassion practice is the fear of setting boundaries and holding people accountable.” She described how she herself used to appear sweet on the outside while feeling judgmental, resentful, and angry on the inside before she mastered this.
Boundary setting tends to sound painful, where one person feels guilty and the other abandoned. You might get hard on yourself, feeling selfish when refusing to assist someone “in need.” So much conditioning centers around putting yourself last, swallowing hard to force yourself to help even when it doesn’t feel right. Boundaries might become a desperation move, where you only decline when you can’t stand it any more.
In reality, setting mindful boundaries deactivates the negative charge between two people, allowing both to experience kindness. Kindness arises within you when you honor your wants, needs, and feelings and don’t force yourself to attend to someone else. Forcing yourself always hurts. Often the recipient also softens when you become clearer since they know what to expect and can scale their expectations. At the very least they benefit from you releasing resentment, judgment, and anger.
In Jin Shin Jyutsu® Japanese acupressure, the Organ Function Energy Lung self-help supports both internal and external boundaries. Safety Energy Lock (SEL) 3 harmonizes relationships since “you plus me makes three.”
Have you mastered mindful boundaries? When you set them, do you find kindness arises more readily?
The Main Central Vertical (MCV) flow and self-help from the ancient healing art of Jin Shin Jyutsu harmonizes everything physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. In this post, I discuss specific projects harmonized by MCV and how to apply MCV.
About three weeks ago, my 56-year-old physically fit husband experienced paralysis of his right side following a stroke. Today it's like his stroke never happened.
Some Jin Shin Jyutsu self-helps for managing emotions, enhancing immunity, and supporting our lungs. Also, I'm hosting free Immunity in Community gatherings.
We open with a 45 minute or so Akashic Records consultation. The revealed themes, patterns, and disharmonies drive the table work in conjunction with your "pulses," body reading, and my intuitive insights. A follow-up e-mail documents what occurs during the energy work and includes customized self-helps.
In this work, you remain fully clothed. Just wear whatever will feel comfortable while lying on my massage table. If it's a remote session, I'll ask you to rest while I send energy.
Please consider the personal or interpersonal disharmony that led you to me and how you would like it to shift. During the session, we'll explore and address the origins and drivers of each "project."
No, the records aren’t a good resource for predictions. If there’s something you hope will happen, the records might reveal a series of necessary steps to reach your desired outcome but not the timing. For predictions, please consult a good psychic or astrologer!
Minors are under their parents' legal and energetic jurisdiction until they are 18, regardless of their maturity level.
The greatest benefit occurs when I incorporate all four modalities I practice. The option without the Akashic Records is appropriate for children under 18 who cannot receive readings. A stand-alone reading can bring insight and healing but does not involve my direct interaction with your energetic and physical bodies like my other practices.
No, but you are welcome to record sessions yourself.
Self-helps, both from Jin Shin Jyutsu and the Embodied Energy System, support your continued harmony, accelerate your evolution, and empower you. Plus they make you sparkly!
